We buy the D/T dental treats from the vet clinic, and I stuff three into our small Kong for Bigun. It will keep him busy for hours, especially getting that third one out!
Thanks, everyone! I did try a carrot, the breeder said it was a great idea, but it fell right out. I have the puppy Kong, but I'm still not sure how to stick a carrot in without it falling out real easy. But today I bought light vanilla yogurt, Cheese Whiz, and also plan to try out the other suggestions soon.

Soooooooooo, where is the puppy report? Are there puppy pictures? Or, are you too busy enjoying your little Springer pup and puppy breath?
She is fabulous! She is the laziest puppy I have ever seen, though. She wakes up for 30-45 minutes, then just plops down wherever she is and goes right to sleep. My dh watched her for a bit last night, and after she just suddenly passed out, said jokingly, "What an exciting dog." She didn't cry much last night, I took her out twice. The first time she didn't have to go, and just sat there on the ground looking at me.
Not sure where I should post a picture, maybe the picture thread? But here's one, because you know I can't resist showing her off.

What a cuddle muffin!!!! I love her!!!! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!!
awwwwwwwwww what a sweetie! Thanks for sharing. My, she is a big girl for 8 weeks! In that red chair she looks like a princess on her throne. No doubt she is very happy to be in the lap of luxury and growing take alot of energy so no wonder she'd sleeping.
The photos I've seen of the litter mine are coming from look so much different.....at 2.5 weeks they barely resemble puppies yet, lol. Mine will be liver/white field bred as well.
Thanks so much to you both! Yes, she's a big girl. The breeders said it's because the litter was only 5, so they had plenty of room to grow. Their growth should level out soon. She just woke up from another one of her many naps and is sitting at my feet, she is so sweet. She loves her crate, and just walked back into it and is playing as I type. Um, napping....too funny, what a lazy girl, I know this can't last! I did today start calling her Princess Sadie, it's funny you made that reference, llMOg. I will follow your posts, I'm excited for your new puppy and mine. A side note, her favorite toy is one of those squashed-looking things without stuffing, they come in foxes, raccoons, and skunks, who knows what else. Good luck!

My rescued Springer was a Velcro Springer when he was inside the house. Always underfoot and napping at my feet. A real snuggle puppy. Outside he was alert and always hunting for whatever he could find or whatever caught his eye. Your girl might be like that too. A perfect lady indoors and a curious and playful kid outdoors.
